根据以下内容回答题:
Happiness can be described as a positive mood and a pleasant state of mind. According to recent polls sixty to seventy percent of Americans consider themselves to be moderately happy and one in twenty persons feels very unhappy.Psychologists have been study-ing the factors that contribute to happiness.It is not predictable nor is a person in an apparently ideal situation necessarily happy.The ideal situation may have little to do with his actual feel-ings. A good education and income are usually considered necessary for happiness.Though both may contribute,they are only chief factors if the person is seriously under-educated or actually suffering from lack of physical needs. The rich are not likely to be happier than the middle-income group or even those with very low incomes.People with college educations are somewhat happier than those who did not gra-duate from high school,and it is believed that this is mainly because they have more opportuni-ty to control their lives.Yet people with a high income and a college education may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education. Poor health does not rule out happiness except for the severely debilitated or those in pain.Learning to cope with a health problem can contribute to happiness.Those with a good sex lifeare happier in general,but those who have a loving affectionate relationship are happier than those who rely on sex alone.Love has a higher correlation with happiness than any other factor. It should be noted that people quickly get used to what they have,and they are happiest when they feel they are increasing their level no matter where it stands at a given time. Children whose parents were happily married have happier childhoods but are not nece—ssarily happier adults. The best formula for happiness is to be able to develop the ability to tolerate frustration,to have a personal involvement and commitment,and to develop self-confidence and self-esteem.
According to the article,happiness is greatly dependent upon() .
A.happy childhood
B.great wealth
C.a feeling that conditions are improving over what they were

Culture shock is an occupational disease (职业病) for people who have been suddenly transplanted abroad.
Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar signs and symbols of social intercourse. Those signs are as following: How to shake hands and what to say when meeting people, when and how to give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These signs, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, or customs, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend on hundreds of these signs for the peace of our mind and day-to-day efficiency, but we do not carry most at the level of conscious awareness.
Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar signs are removed. No matter how broadminded or full of good will you may be, a series of supports have been knocked from under you, followed by a feeling of frustration. When suffering from culture shock people first reject the environment which causes discomfort. The ways of the host country are bad Because they make us feel bad. When foreigners on a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure that they are suffering from culture shock.
According to the passage, culture shock is______.
A.an occupational disease of foreign people
B.may lead to very serious symptoms
C.actually not a disease
D.incurable
Customs are also different from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn't it matter? What about table manner? Should you use both hands when you are eating?
The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o'clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.
The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable---especially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man who gave a dinner party. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.
If one has accepted a dinner invitation, what should he do if he is to be late for the dinner?
A.He should find an excuse.
B.He should ask for excuse.
C.He should say "Sorry"
D.He should telephone to explain his being late.
